EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A (the “Amendment”) amends the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of BT Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 (the “Original Filing”), that was originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 14, 2024. The Amendment is being filed for the sole purpose of furnishing the Interactive Data File as Exhibit 101. The Amendment revises the exhibit index included in Part II, Item 6 of the Original Filing and Exhibit 101 (XBRL interactive data) is included as an exhibit to the Amendment.

In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), new certifications by the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officers are filed as exhibits hereto.

Except as described above, the Amendment does not modify or update the disclosures presented in, or exhibits to, the Original Filing in any way. Those sections of the Original Filing that are unaffected by the Amendment are not included herein. The Amendment continues to speak as of the date of the Original Filing. Furthermore, the Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original Filing. Accordingly, the Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing, as well as the Company’s other filings made with the SEC pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING RISKS

AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

Forward-Looking Information

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements about the business, financial condition and prospects of BT Brands, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (together, the “Company”). Forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “projects,” “expects,” “may,” “estimates,” “should,” “plans,” “targets,” “intends,” “could,” “would,” “anticipates,” “potential,” “confident,” “optimistic” or the negative thereof, or other variations thereon, or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy, objectives, estimates, guidance, expectations, and future plans. Forward-looking statements can also be identified by the fact that these statements do not relate strictly to historical or current matters. Rather, forward-looking statements relate to anticipated or expected events, activities, trends or results. Because forward-looking statements relate to matters that have not yet occurred, these statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties.

While the Company believes the expectations reflected in forward-looking statements are reasonable, there can be no assurances that such expectations will prove to be accurate. Security holders are cautioned that such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this report in the context of the factors that could cause outcomes to differ materially from our expectations. These factors include, but are not limited to:

	·	capital requirements and the availability of capital to fund our growth;
	·	difficulties executing our growth strategy, including completing profitable acquisitions;
	·	the impact of public health matters;
	·	all risks of acquiring an existing restaurant business, including identifying a suitable target, completing comprehensive due diligence, the impact on our financial condition of any debt we may incur in acquiring the target, the ability to integrate the target’s operations with our existing operations, our ability to retain management and key employees of the target, among other factors relevant to acquisitions;
	·	challenges related to hiring and retaining store employees at competitive wage rates;
	·	our failure to prevent food safety and foodborne illness incidents;
	·	shortages or interruptions in the supply or delivery of food products;
	·	our dependence on a small number of suppliers;
	·	negative publicity relating to any one of our restaurants;
	·	competition from other restaurant chains with significantly greater resources than we have;
	·	changes in economic conditions, including the effects on consumer confidence and discretionary spending;
	·	changes in consumer tastes and nutritional and dietary trends;
	·	our inability to manage our growth;
	·	loss of key personnel;
	·	labor shortages and increased labor costs;
	·	our vulnerability to increased food, commodity, and energy costs;
	·	the impact of governmental laws and regulations;
	·	failure to obtain and maintain required licenses and permits to comply with food control regulations;
	·	changes in economic conditions, adverse weather, and other unforeseen conditions:
	·	inadequately protecting our intellectual property;
	·	breaches of security of confidential consumer information; and
	·	other factors discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K under “Business” and “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”

We caution you that the important factors referenced above may not contain all of the factors that are important to you. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will realize the results or developments we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially realized, will result in the consequences we anticipate or affect us or our operations in the ways we expect. The forward-looking statements included in this report are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. If we update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be made that we will make additional updates regarding those or other forward-looking statements. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

From time to time, oral or written forward-looking statements are also included in our reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K, our Schedule 14A, our press releases and other materials released to the public. Although we believe that at the time made, the expectations reflected in all of these forward-looking statements are and will be reasonable, any or all of the forward-looking statements may prove to be incorrect. This may occur due to inaccurate assumptions or due to known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Many factors discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, certain of which are beyond our control, will be important in determining our future performance. Consequently, actual results may differ materially from those anticipated from forward-looking statements. In light of these and other uncertainties, you should not regard the inclusion of a forward-looking statement in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or other public communications that we might make as a representation that our plans and objectives will be achieved, and you should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether due to new information, future events or otherwise. However, your attention is directed to any further disclosures made on related subjects in our subsequent periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BT Brands, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company," "we," "our," "us," "BT Brands," or "BT") and have been prepared in accordance with the US generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") requirements for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent in all material respects with the accounting policies for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. In our opinion, all regular and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operation have been included. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year.

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2024, does not include all the disclosures required by GAAP. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023, and the related notes included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and the differences could be material.

The Company

BT Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated as Hartmax of NY Inc. on January 19, 2016. Effective July 30, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of BTND, LLC.

As of June 30, 2024, including our approximately 40% owned Bagger Dave’s business, we operated eighteen restaurants comprising the following:

	·	Eight Burger Time fast-food restaurants located in the North Central region of the United States, collectively (“BTND”), including our former Dairy Queen franchise located in Ham Lake, Minnesota, which commenced operations as a Burger Time effective July 1, 2024;
	·	Bagger Dave’s Burger Tavern, Inc., an approximately 40% owned affiliate, operates six Bagger Dave’s restaurants in Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana (“Bagger Dave’s” or “BD”);
	·	Keegan’s Seafood Grille in Indian Rocks Beach, Florida (“Keegan’s”);
	·	Pie In The Sky Coffee and Bakery in Woods Hole, Massachusetts (“PIE”);
	·	Schnitzel Haus in Hobe Sound, Florida (“Schnitzel”);
	·	Village Bier Garten is a German-themed restaurant, bar, and entertainment venue in Cocoa, Florida (“VBG”).

See Note 8 for information regarding our related party investment in NGI.

Business

In addition to eight Burger Time restaurants, collectively ("BTND"), we own and operate Keegan's Seafood Grille ("Keegan's"), a dine-in restaurant located in Florida, Pie In The Sky Coffee and Bakery ("PIE"), a casual dining coffee shop bakery located in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, Schnitzel Haus (“Schnitzel”), a German-themed restaurant in Hobe Sound, Florida and the Village Bier Garten (“VBG”), a German-themed restaurant in Cocoa, Florida. Our Burger Time restaurants feature a variety of burgers and other affordable foods, sides, and soft drinks.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our accounting for fair value measurements of assets and liabilities, including available-for-sale securities, is that they are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the statements on a recurring or nonrecurring basis, adhere to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the input to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.

The hierarchy prioritizes unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

	·	Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we can access at the measurement date.
	·	Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the entire term of the asset or liability.
	·	Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Table of Contents

The carrying values of cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, and other financial working capital items approximate fair value due to the short maturity nature of these instruments. The following is a summary of the fair value of Level 1 investments.

	June 30, 2024				December 31, 2023
	Fair value Carrying Amount		Level 1		Fair value Carrying Amount		Level 1
Corporate bond fund	$	176,250	$	176,250	$	178,500	$	178,500
Common stocks		1,319,389		1,319,389		1,213,560		1,213,560
Total	$	1,495,639	$	1,495,639	$	1,392,060	$	1,392,060

Total cost of marketable securities at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $1,180,708 and $1,477,178, respectively.

Receivables

Receivables consist of estimated rebates due from a primary vendor.

Inventory

Inventory consists of food, beverages, and supplies and is stated at a lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, ranging from three to thirty years.

We review long-lived assets to determine if the carrying value of these assets is recoverable based on estimated cash flows. Assets are evaluated at the lowest level, for which cash flows can be identified at the restaurant level. In determining future cash flows, we estimate the future operating results of each restaurant. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the assets' carrying value exceeds the assets' fair value.

Goodwill and other Intangible Assets and Other Assets

Goodwill is not amortized and is assessed for impairment at least annually. The cost of other intangible assets is amortized over their expected useful lives.

Asset Held for Sale

We closed a Burger Time store in Richmond, Indiana, in 2018. The Richmond location is currently offered for sale. We believe the Richmond property will be sold at or above its current carrying value. In the first quarter of 2023, our former West St. Paul Burger Time location was sold, resulting in a gain of $313,688 during the 2023 period.

Income Taxes

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification (ASC.), 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. ASC 740 using the asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. They are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. If necessary, we provide a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value. The deferred tax assets are reviewed periodically for recoverability, and valuation allowances are adjusted as necessary.

As of June 30, 2024, we estimated our annual tax provision using a net combined federal and state rate for the year of approximately 27.5%.

The Company has no accrued interest or penalties related to income tax obligations. No federal or state examinations are in progress, and the company has not had any examinations since its inception.

Per Common Share Amounts

Net income per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income or loss per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during each period. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the computation of diluted per-share amounts if their effect is anti-dilutive. There were no dilutive shares for the periods ending in 2024 and 2023.

The Company's Board of Directors has authorized a stock repurchase program of up to 625,000 shares.

NOTE 6 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In 2019, we adopted the BT Brands, Inc. 2019 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), under which the Company may grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance stock units, and other stock and cash awards to eligible participants. As of June 30, 2024, 765,750 shares were available for grant under the 2019 Incentive Plan.

In 2023 we granted a consultant a seven year warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at $2.50 per share that expire in 7 years. The warrant vest monthly over five years so long as the consultant continues in this capacity. Assuming the consulting agreement continues to full term, we project approximately $144,000 in stock-based compensation will be recognized at $32,000 per year in each of the next four years, and $16,000 will be recognized in 2028.

Compensation expense equal to the fair value of the options at the grant date is recognized in general and administrative expense over the applicable service period. Total equity-based compensation expenses for stock options and warrants in the second quarters of 2024 and 2023 were $56,000 and $41,400, respectively. Based on current estimates, we project that approximately $136,000 in stock-based compensation expense for current stock options will be recognized over the next five years: $62,000 in 2024, $60,000 in 2025, $10,000 in 2026, $3,000 in 2027 and $1,000 in 2028.

As outlined in each agreement, stock options granted to employees and directors generally vest 20% upon grant and 20% in annual installments for four years. total Options expire ten years from the date of the grant. Compensation expense equal to the fair value of the options at the grant date is recognized in general and administrative expense over the applicable service period.

We utilize the Black-Scholes option pricing model when determining the compensation cost associated with stock options issued using the following significant assumptions:

	·	Stock price – Published trading market values of the Company’s common stock as of the grant date.
	·	Exercise price – The stated exercise price of the stock option.
	·	Expected life – The simplified method
	·	Expected dividend – The rate of dividends expected to be paid over the term of the stock option.
	·	Volatility – Estimated volatility.
	·	Risk-free interest rate – The United States Treasury yield curve rate corresponding to the expected life of the award

On February 27, 2023, the Company adopted a Contingent Incentive Share Award with senior executives. The Contingent Incentive Share Awards provides that so long as the Company’s publicly traded warrants are outstanding, senior management will be deemed to earn an aggregate award of 250,000 shares of common stock as an award upon the Company’s share price reaching $8.50 per share for 20 consecutive trading days, provided, however, participants must be employed by the Company at the time the Incentive Shares are earned. The estimated expense associated with this award was determined to be $265,000. As a result of the Contingent Incentive Share Award, $62,000 of stock-based compensation was recognized for the twenty-six weeks of 2024 and $41,000 for the twenty-six weeks of 2023. We utilized a lattice model when determining the fair value of the Contingent Incentive Share Awards. We project approximately $160,000 of stock-based compensation will be recognized over the next two years, including $126,000 in 2024 and $36,000 in 2025.

NOTE 7 – LEASES

The present value of leases is calculated at the time the lease is entered into or assumed by us using an estimated incremental borrowing rate at that time. Variable lease expenses primarily are property taxes and insurance.

The Keegan’s lease is for approximately 2,800 square feet of restaurant space. The 131-month Keegan’s lease provides for an initial rent of $5,000 per month with an annual escalation equal to the greater of 3% or the Consumer Price Index. The lease is being accounted for as an operating lease. At the inception of the lease, we recorded an operating lease obligation and a right-of-use asset of $624,000. The present value of future lease payments discounted at 3.75% of the remaining lease obligation of $527,001 is reflected as a liability in the accompanying financial statements.

The PIE lease is for approximately 3,500 square feet of restaurant and bakery production space. The terms of the 60-month lease provide for an initial rent of $10,000 per month with an annual escalation after 24 months of 3%. The PIE lease includes three five-year renewal option periods. The PIE lease is accounted for as an operating lease. At the inception of the lease, we recorded an operating lease obligation and a right-of-use asset of $1,055,000. The present value discounted at 4.5% of the remaining lease obligation of $877,259 is reflected as a liability in the accompanying financial statements.

The Village Bier Garten five-year lease is for approximately 3,000 square feet of restaurant space and access to an additional 3,000 square feet of shared entertainment and seating area. The terms of the triple-net 60-month lease provide for an initial rent of $8,200 per month with an annual escalation of 3%. The VBG lease includes three five-year renewal option periods. The VBG lease is accounted for as an operating lease. At its inception, we recorded an operating lease obligation and a right-of-use asset of $469,949. The present value, discounted at 4.5% of the remaining lease obligation of $309,271, is reflected as a liability in the accompanying financial statements.

Concurrent with the May 2024 acquisition of assets and our commencing operations, we assumed the remaining 44 months on the restaurant’s lease obligation for approximately $5,400 per month. The Schnitzel Hause lease is accounted for as an operating lease. At its inception, we recorded an operating lease obligation and a right-of-use asset of $182,878. The present value, discounted at 6.5% of the remaining lease obligation of $179,437, is reflected as a liability in the accompanying financial statements.

The weighted average remaining lease term is approximately 3.5 years, and the weighted average discount rate is approximately 5.5%.

Following is a schedule of the approximate minimum future lease payments on the operating leases as of June 30, 2024:

	Total
Remainder 2024	$	172,274
2025		351,626
2026		362,188

Total future minimum lease payments		2,241,141
Less - interest		(348,173	)
	$	1,892,968

The total operating lease expenses for the second 13-week periods in 2024 and 2023 were approximately $85,000 and $81,000, respectively. In the 2024 and 2023 respective 26-week periods operating lease expenses totaled $154,500 and $97,900. Cash paid for leases during the second thirteen weeks in 2024 totaled $79,000, and in 2023 totaled $76,000. Cash paid for leases was $148,000 and $140,000 for the 2024 and 2023 26-week periods, respectively. Variable expenses for lease properties were approximately $9,000 in the second quarter of 2024 and $8,500 in the second quarter of 2023, and variable lease expenses were $26,250 and $14,200 in the 26-week periods for 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Our recent acquisitions have allowed us to diversify our operations into new restaurant segments and new geographic regions, reducing our dependency on the financial performance of our Burger Time restaurants. During 2022, we acquired three operating restaurants and approximately a 40% ownership interest in Bagger Dave’s, an operator of six casual restaurants. During the second quarter of 2024, we acquired assets and assumed the remaining lease obligation related to the Schnitzel Haus restaurant in Hobe Sound, Florida. We continue to consider new acquisition opportunities.

Material Trends and Uncertainties

Industry trends have a direct impact on our business. Current trends include difficulties attracting food service workers and rapid inflation in the cost of input items. Recent trends also include the rapidly changing area of technology and food delivery. The major companies in the restaurant industry have rapidly adopted and developed smartphone and mobile delivery applications, aggressively expanded drive-through operations, and developed loyalty programs and database marketing supported by a robust technology platform. We expect these trends to continue as restaurants aggressively compete for customers. Competitors will continue to discount prices through aggressive promotions.

Food costs have increased over the last two years, and we expect to see moderation of inflationary pressure during the remainder of 2024. Beef and egg costs trended down slightly in 2023. Given the competitive nature of the restaurant industry, raising menu prices to fully cover cost increases may be challenging. As a result, future margin improvements may be difficult to achieve. Margin improvement will be achieved through operational enhancements, equipment advances, and increased volumes offsetting food cost increases.

Labor is a critical factor in operating our stores. Securing staff to run our locations at full capacity has become more challenging in most areas where we operate our restaurants. The current labor market has resulted in higher wages as the competition for employees intensifies, not only in the restaurant industry but in practically all retail and service industries. To succeed, we must identify, develop, and retain quality employees.

Net Sales:

Net sales for the second fiscal quarter of 2024 increased $110,674 to $4,110,639 from $3,999,965 in fiscal 2023. The increase in sales was principally the result of improved sales performance at Burger Time. The increase reflects strong sales performance at Pie in the Sky, which experienced a 16.5% sales increase over the prior year’s 13-week period. The increase also reflects sales increases at the majority of our Burger Time locations net of the impact of our Ham Lake, Minnesota location, which was closed for approximately four weeks during the period as the location was repurposed to a Burger Time store, which opened July 1, 2024. Sales also reflect the addition of the operations of Schnitzel Haus on May 13, 2024.

Restaurant unit sales for Burger Time for the 13 weeks ranged from a low of approximately $161,000 to a high of approximately $348,000. The average sales for each Burger Time unit were approximately $276,000 in 2024, approximately $34,000 above the same period in 2023. The average customer transaction at our Burger Time restaurants increased by approximately 10% in 2024. The results reflect a significant menu price increase, particularly in our “Deal of the Day” offering. The average check is currently about $18.00.

Our various restaurants all experience unique seasonal sales patterns.

Costs of Sales - food and paper:

The cost of sales—food and paper—for the fiscal 2024 period declined to 38.1% from 40.2% of restaurant sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2023. This percentage was the net result of moderating inflationary pressures, including the cost of key inputs from a year ago and the impact of menu price increases at all locations, particularly at Burger Time, where the menu price of the popular “Deal of the Day” was increased approximately 10%.

Restaurant Operating Costs:

Restaurant operating costs (which refer to all the costs associated with the operation of our restaurants but do not include general and administrative expenses and depreciation and amortization) as a percentage of restaurant sales increased to 89.4% of sales in the fiscal quarter of 2024 from 84.2% in the similar period of fiscal 2023. This increase was the result of increases in labor costs, additional occupancy costs, and stabilizing commodity costs and the matters discussed in the "Cost of Sales, - food and paper," "Labor Costs," and "Occupancy and Other Operating Costs" sections below.

Table of Contents

Labor Costs

For the second quarter of fiscal 2024, labor and benefits costs increased as a percentage of restaurant sales to 37.7% from 35.3% in fiscal 2023. The increase in the percentage cost resulted from the continued tightness of labor markets, higher-than-historical costs to train new employees and continued upward competitive pressure on hourly wage costs. These costs were offset by leveraging existing staffing and labor costs associated with the Schnitzel Haus acquisition. Payroll costs are semi-variable, meaning they do not increase proportionally to increases in revenue.

Occupancy and Other Operating Expenses

For the second fiscal quarter of 2024, occupancy and other expenses increased to 13.6% of sales from 8.7% in 2023, partly reflecting a spike in maintenance expense, inflationary increases in utility costs and the lease expense related to the Schnitzel Haus acquisition. The increase in 2024 from occupancy expense in 2023 also reflects the 2023 second-quarter reversal of previously accrued property taxes related to a property in the St. Louis, Missouri, area. The St. Louis property was deeded to the taxing authority as settlement of the amount due.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense:

For the second fiscal quarter of 2024, depreciation and amortization expenses were $171,351 (4.2% of sales), a decrease from $192,520 (4.8% of sales) in the prior year as more of the Company’s assets reached the fully depreciated amount.

General and Administrative Costs

General and administrative costs in the second fiscal quarter of 2024 were $454,805, a decline of $64,272 from $519,077 in the second quarter of 2023. Due to increased sales, general and administrative expenses decreased slightly as a percentage of sales to 11.1% of sales from 13.0% in the same period of the previous year.

Income from Operations

The loss from operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was $188,543, compared to a loss of $79,548 in the prior year fiscal quarter. This reflects higher hourly and increases in manager wages in virtually all of the company’s businesses, as well as the items discussed in the "Net Sales" and "Restaurant Operating Costs" sections above.

Restaurant-level EBITDA

To supplement the condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company uses restaurant-level EBITDA, which is not a measure defined by GAAP. This non-GAAP operating measure is useful to both management and, we believe, investors because it represents one means of gauging the overall profitability of our recurring and controllable core restaurant operations. This measure is not indicative of our overall results, nor does restaurant-level profit accrue directly to the benefit of stockholders, primarily due to the exclusion of corporate-level expenses. Restaurant-level EBITDA should not be considered a substitute or superior to operating income calculated under GAAP. The reconciliations to operating income set forth below should be carefully evaluated.

Page 20 of 27

Table of Contents

We define restaurant-level EBITDA as operating income before pre-opening costs, including general and administrative costs, depreciation and amortization, and impairment charges. General and administrative expenses are excluded as they are generally not specifically identifiable as restaurant-specific costs. Depreciation, amortization, and impairment charges are excluded because they are not ongoing controllable cash expenses and are not related to the health of ongoing operations.

Net Sales:

Net sales for the 26 weeks representing the first half of fiscal 2024 increased $230,023, or 3.2%, to $7,300,786 from $7,070,763 in fiscal 2023.

The increase in sales was principally the result of improved sales performance at Burger Time. The average customer transaction at our Burger Time restaurants increased by approximately 10% in 2024, including a significant percentage increase in our “Deal of the Day” offering. The average check is currently about $18.00. This recent increase is principally the result of menu price increases. Burger Time unit sales for the 26 weeks ranged from a low of approximately $286,000 to a high of approximately $616,000. Average sales for each Burger Time unit were approximately $471,000 in 2024, an increase from approximately $404,200 in the same 26-week period in 2023.

Sales at PIE for the six months also continued to be strong, increasing 16% over the prior year, well above an estimated 8% menu price increase. Keegan’s and the Village Bier Garten combined results were flat with 2023 first-half sales.

Costs of Sales - food and paper:

Cost of sales - food and paper for the first half of fiscal 2024 declined to 39.0% from 41.0% in the 2023 period due to menu price increases, particularly at Burger Time, where menu price increases contributed to improved margins.

Restaurant Operating Costs:

Restaurant operating costs, which are associated with operations, not including general and administrative expenses, and depreciation and amortization, increased as a percentage of restaurant sales to 94.2% in 2024 from 90.7% in fiscal 2023. This increase was due to the increase in sales activity from new locations and its impact, as further discussed in the "Cost of Sales," "Labor Costs," and "Occupancy and Other Operating Costs" sections below.

Page 21 of 27

Table of Contents

Labor Costs:

For the first half of fiscal 2024, labor and benefits costs increased to 40.2% of restaurant sales from 37.0% in fiscal 2023. Shortages in staffing levels combined with higher hourly wage rates at all locations increased the overall labor percentage. Additional management labor at the Company’s PIE business. Overall hiring markets have continued to be challenging in terms of filling open positions. Payroll costs are semi-variable, with most locations requiring minimal staffing level, and generally, labor costs do not change directly with changes in revenue.

Occupancy and Other Operating Expenses:

For the first 26 weeks of fiscal 2024, occupancy and other expenses increased to 15.0% of sales from 12.8% in 2023, partly due to higher repair and maintenance costs. The increase in 2024 from occupancy expense in 2023 also reflects the 2023 second-quarter reversal of previously accrued property taxes related to a property in the St. Louis, Missouri, area. The St. Louis property was deeded to the taxing area as settlement of the amount due.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense:

Depreciation and amortization expenses in the first half of fiscal 2024 decreased to $331,893 (4.5% of sales) from $356,027 (5.0% of sales) in the first half of fiscal 2023 as a result of lower depredation expense.

General and Administrative Costs:

General and administrative costs decreased $35,572, or 3.8%, to $909,420 from $944,992 (13.4% of sales) in the first half of fiscal 2023. The year-over-year change was insignificant as many components are fixed costs.

Loss from Operations:

The operating loss was $819,372 in the first half of fiscal 2024, compared to a loss of $330,306 in the first half of fiscal 2023. The 2023 operating loss is net of a $313,688 gain on the sale of one of the Company’s properties. The change in loss from operations in the first half of fiscal 2024 compared to fiscal 2023 was due primarily to the increase in labor and occupancy costs, including the "Net Sales" and "Restaurant Operating Costs" sections above.

Restaurant-level EBITDA:

To supplement the consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use restaurant-level EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization), which is not a measure defined by GAAP. This non-GAAP operating measure is useful to both management and investors because it represents one means of gauging the overall profitability of our recurring and controllable core restaurant operations. However, this measure is not indicative of our overall results, nor does restaurant-level profit accrue directly to the benefit of stockholders, primarily due to the exclusion of corporate-level expenses. Accordingly, restaurant-level EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for or superior to operating income, which is calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the reconciliations to operating income set forth below should be carefully evaluated.

Page 22 of 27

Table of Contents

We define restaurant-level EBITDA as operating income before pre-opening costs, if any, general and administrative costs, depreciation and amortization and gains on sales of assets. General and administrative expenses are excluded because they are generally unrelated to restaurant-specific costs, and depreciation and amortization are excluded because they are not ongoing controllable cash expenses and are unrelated to ongoing operations’ health.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On June 30, 2024, we had $5.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and net working capital of $4.4 million, a decrease of $1.3 million from December 31, 2023.

Our primary requirements for liquidity are to fund our working capital needs, capital expenditures, and general corporate needs, as well as to invest in or acquire businesses. Our operations do not require significant working capital, and, like many restaurant companies, we generally operate with negative working capital. We anticipate that working capital deficits may be incurred in the future and possibly increase. Our primary liquidity and cash flow sources are operating cash flows and cash on hand. We use this to service debt, maintain our stores to operate efficiently and increase our working capital. Our working capital position benefits from the fact that we collect cash from sales from our customers at the point of purchase or within a few days from our credit card processor; generally, payments to our vendors are not due for thirty days.

Summary of Cash Flows

Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities

Operating cash flow for the 26 weeks ending June 30, 2024, was negative $326,369. This was impacted by ongoing seasonal trading patterns in our business, which experienced increased labor costs and repair and maintenance expenses.

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

We have continued to make improvements in our existing businesses and to seek acquisitions in the food service and related industries.

Cash Flows Used in Financing Activities

A significant portion of our cash flow used in financing activities is allocated to service our debt.

Contractual Obligations

As of June 30, 2024, we had $4.3 million in contractual obligations relating to amounts due under mortgages on the real property where our stores are situated, including $1.9 million in lease obligations related to our recent acquisitions. Our monthly required payments on lease and mortgage obligations are approximately $47,000.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK.

As a smaller reporting company, as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we have elected to comply with certain scaled disclosure reporting obligations and are not required to provide the information required by this item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

(1) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the periods specified by the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed to ensure that this information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of June 30, 2024, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation and the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as disclosed in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2024,, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules, regulations, and forms of the SEC, including ensuring that such material information is accumulated by and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(2) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In addition to the matters discussed previously, the Company identified a consultant as an extension of management to assist in the accounting for acquisitions. Except for the items described above, there were no other changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter, which ended June 30, 2024, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There are no pending legal proceedings to which the Company is a party or as to which any of its property is subject, and no such proceedings are known to be threatened or contemplated against it.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

On February 9, 2022, the independent members of the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved a grant of 250,000 shares of common stock to each of Gary Copperud and Kenneth Brimmer, the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer, respectively, if, so long as the Company's publicly traded warrants are outstanding, the Company's common stock trades at $8.50 per share for 20 consecutive trading days. The award of the shares is tied directly to the price at which the common stock purchase warrants issued in the Company's initial public offering completed in November 2021 are redeemable by the Company. The warrants initially are exercisable at $5.50 per share (subject to adjustment under certain circumstances). The Company expects that if and when the warrants become redeemable, holders will exercise their warrants, and the Company will receive additional capital to fund acquisitions and growth. On July 5, 2023, the Company granted a seven-year option to purchase 100,000 shares of its common stock at $2.50 per share to a consultant. These options granted to the consultant vest monthly over a 60-month period so long as the consulting relationship continues. On April 1, 2024, the Company granted the three independent members of the Board of Directors options to purchase an aggregate of 15,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.61 per share. Under these awards, options to purchase 20% of the total granted vested on the grant date and the balance of the options vest in equal annual installments on the anniversary of the grant date in each of the four ensuing years.

Other than as set forth above, since the date on which the Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K and through the date of this quarterly report, we did not sell any securities.

Use of Proceeds

Since the closing of the Company's initial public offering in November 2021, the Company has used the proceeds received from the sale of securities for general working capital purposes and to acquire (i) the restaurant assets of Keegan's Seafood Grille ($1,150,000) and Pie in the Sky Bakery and Coffee Shop ($1,160,000) and (ii) a purchase of 41.2% of the then outstanding shares of common stock of Bagger Dave's ($1,390,000) and (iii) the purchase and rehab of the Village Bier Garten and (iv) purchase of asset of Schnitzel Haus in an aggregate amount of approximately $943,000.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

	·	Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we can access at the measurement date.
	·	Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the entire term of the asset or liability.
	·	Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Receivables

Receivables consist of estimated rebates due from a primary vendor.

Inventory

Inventory consists of food, beverages, and supplies and is stated at a lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, ranging from three to thirty years.

Goodwill and other Intangible Assets and Other Assets

Goodwill is not amortized and is assessed for impairment at least annually. The cost of other intangible assets is amortized over their expected useful lives.

Asset Held for Sale
